Description / Abstract:

This International Standard specifies the requirements for four
types of textile-reinforced thermoplastics collapsible water hoses
for general applications for use in the temperature range of −10 °C
to 55 °C. Such hoses are classified into four types, as
follows:

— low pressure, designed for a maximum working pressure of up to
0,4 MPa (4,0 bar) at 23 °C and up to 0,2 MPa (2,0 bar) at 55
°C;

— medium pressure, for a maximum working pressure of up to 0,7
MPa (7,0 bar) at 23 °C and up to 0,36 MPa (3,6 bar) at 55 °C;

— high pressure, for a maximum working pressure of up to 1,0 MPa
(10,0 bar) at 23 °C and up to 0,51 MPa (5,1 bar) at 55 °C;

— extra-high pressure, for a maximum working pressure of up to
1,55 MPa (15,5 bar) at 23 °C and up to 0,79 MPa (7,9 bar) at 55
°C.

This International Standard does not apply to products used for
fire-fighting or the conveyance of drinking water
